All right, the closest I can think of for 8 is Elentari, where ELEPHANT loses H and P, and then we get ELEANT, and then it makes no sense.

Margreet Zelle is the birth name of Mata HARI.

And elephant also loses the A of 'HAPpy'.

#2 - acticle = AN + pirate quoth = AR gives ANAR, but I am not sure where the "pattern comes in. It makes it sound like there is something beyond ANAR. But all that comes to mind are names like Anarion and Anardil, which don't really describe patterns either.

'Anar' is the right start (just about), but 'pattern' is the beginning of the straight clue; there's something else between.

'car' is the correct element for both of those, but it's not Carnil.

'Seven set' suggests Orion. Could it be MENELMACAR, meaning 'Warrior of the sky?' Only because that name seems the closest to indicating power. 'Around' suggests scrambling a synonym of power, but I can't see one.

You're kind of on the right track, but why Orion? He's not particularly famous for his seven-ness (though I guess he does have seven main stars + the nebula... there's a lot of sevenness going on in the night sky, actually).

No anagrams involved.

Nope; as said a few posts up, 'car' was the correct element for red (and there's no mention of stars in the clue).

If you break it up right, "or a vowel vehicle in back" literally spells out the answer.

Huinesoron · 10-12-2020, 05:10 AM

A quick hintthrough of the remaining clues:

3. - Spell the water the old way - with a kick!

Two words of this are a straight clue; the rest is orthographic.

5. - Go back to noodles with a different filling - sounds like a police siren?!

'different filling' indicates one letter has been changed.

6. - The east is red - or a vowel vehicle in back.

Everything after the dash is just me spelling out the word; it can be broken into four parts (and you already know that 'vehicle' = car).

7. - The first is the least. The pirate agrees, so turn it on its head.

"The first is | the east. The pirate agrees | so turn it on its head". The last part is neither straight nor cryptic; probably best to ignore it.

9. - Rings around the lower back.

The cryptic clue here is 3 words long and points to a single English word.

11. - A chemical in a swamp? Send the shepherd away to find the lamenter.

The misspelling of 'shepherd' was unintentional. ^_^' Find two words and then remove one; there's only so many 'shepherd' options in Middle-earth, right?

12. - T. rex bangs it, the first gnomes start to end - this comes first.

The T. rex in question is not the dinosaur.

Right , so Maglor is the answer.
